December Raha

Two Luo bands who feature on this label and, so far, no others. Raha 7-36 is from the VoA library, while RAHA 76 is in the British Library’s National Sound Archive and may be mislabeled - it could be 7-6 or 7-76. For that matter, the label name may be just December or December Raha, even if the BL gives it as December Raha 76.

Diploma

Diploma was set up in Nairobi by Manasse Omwona in 1964, making him the first independent African record producer in Kenya. This would suggest these records date from the late 1960s and 1970s. The label seems to have spread its net wide with songs in Dholuo, Luhya, Swahili, Lingala and Kipsigis.
